—When reconstructing a specific type or class of object using stereo, we can leverage prior knowledge of the shape of that type of object. A popular class of object to reconstru...
We construct a class of envelope surfaces in Rd , more precisely envelopes of balls. An envelope surface is a closed C1 (tangent continuous) manifold wrapping tightly around the u...
So far global optimization techniques have been developed independently for the tasks of shape matching and image segmentation. In this paper we show that both tasks can in fact b...
In this paper, we propose a new scheme for free-form skeletondriven global mesh deformations. First a Voronoi-based skeletal mesh is extracted from a given original mesh. Next the...

A novel method of snakes with shape prior is presented in this paper. We propose to add a new force which makes the curve evolve to particular shape corresponding to a template to...
